Bedford HA Inspection And Repairs

As our 1982 Bedford HA Van is now live on the Bridge Classic Cars Competitions website, classic car technician Jonn has been looking at it to make sure it is ready to go to the lucky winner in a couple of weeks time. Here are his notes: Take into workshop to finish inspection. Secure rear […]

New Roof Panel

The old roof panel on our 1972 Morgan 4/4 was badly damaged and beyond repair. The hood was also very tight, making it hard to put up, especially on your own. Lydia inserted a new panel and added an inch onto the depth, making it much easier to put onto the hood frame now.

First Assessment

Before our 1982 Bedford HA Van goes live on Bridge Classic Cars Competitions, Jonn has been inspecting it. He attended to the throttle not being connected. He found that the linkage was actually a mechanical one and had fallen off so Jonn reconnected it to the throttle pedal.

Competition Repairs

Our 1963 Vauxhall Victor recently went live on the Bridge Classic Cars Competitions website. As it is scheduled to be won very soon, Jonn has been making some repairs to make sure it is ready to go to the lucky winner. He has removed the inline fuel filter, cleaned it out, blew it through, and […]

Land Rover Doors

The doors of our 1953 Land Rover Series 1, which is currently live on Bridge Classic Cars Competitions, have been in the paintshop with technician Chris.

Looking Good In Any Setting

Our 2010 Land Rover Defender looks good on a campsite, on the road, or anywhere else really. To prove this point, we took the below photos when it was parked up at our storage facility at Bentwaters Parks. This impressive-looking car will soon be available to win through Bridge Classic Cars Competitions.

Series 1 Hard Top

Our 1953 Land Rover Series 1 has had its hard top fitted by classic car technician Jonn and workshop manager. If you thought it looked cool without a roof on, or with its canvas roof, the hard top certainly looks equally as appealing (if not even better).
